Join author, illustrator and disability advocate Kam Redlawsk to discuss her debut picture book Yumi and Monster, inspired by own experience living with a rare degenerative disease.
Come take a journey into the emotions we feel when faced with unexpected challenges-and discover the beauty, magic, and adventure that lie beyond fear, in ourselves. Kam will read aloud Yumi and Monster, but the ensuing discussion and Q/A will be geared towards adults and older kids who are curious to discuss the themes of self-acceptance and disability justice.
Kam Redlawsk is a multi-award-winning disabled industrial designer, artist, rare disease and disability advocate, traveler, writer, consultant, and speaker, born in South Korea, raised in Michigan, thriving in California. She's also a Korean American adoptee. Kam is a self-taught illustrator. Yumi and Monster is her children's book debut as author and illustrator. You are invited to visit Kam at kamredlawsk.com.
